Steve Irwin

Ok, so, first things first, for those of you living under a rock, Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin was killed by a stingray's barb to the heart on Monday while ironically filming for a show called "The Ocean's Deadliest". I would have never thought that he would have been killed by an animal. He made it look like he was invincible when you watched his show. He leaves behind his wife Terri, and his two children, Bindi and Robert.

1962 - 2006

On an interesting note: How rare is death by stingray? Only one other confirmed stingray death has been recorded in Australian history - that of a 12-year-old boy stung near Innisfall in 1988.

P.S. I don't want to hear any more newscasters say the word "Crikey".
